However, where a Party has, with regard to a particular measure, initiated a dispute settlement proceeding, either under this Title or under the WTO Agreement, it shall not institute a dispute settlement proceeding regarding the same measure in the other forum until the first proceeding has ended. In addition, a Party shall not seek redress for the breach of an obligation which is identical under this Agreement and under the WTO Agreement in both fora. In such case, once a dispute settlement proceeding has been initiated, a Party shall not bring a claim seeking redress for the breach of the identical obligation under the other agreement to the other forum, unless the forum selected fails for procedural or jurisdictional reasons to make findings on the claim seeking redress of that obligation. 3. A Party may, with regard to a particular measure, institute a dispute settlement proceeding either under this Part or under the WTO Agreement, as follows:
4. (a) dispute settlement proceedings under this Part shall be deemed to be initiated by a Party's request for the establishment of an arbitration panel under Article 112, and shall be deemed to be ended when the arbitration panel notifies its ruling to the Parties and to the Committee of Senior Officials under Article 115, or where a mutually agreed solution has been reached under Article 119;
5. (b) dispute settlement proceedings under the WTO Agreement shall be deemed to be initiated by a Party's request for the establishment of a panel under Article 6 of the DSU, and shall be deemed to be ended when the WTO Dispute Settlement Body adopts the report of the WTO panel or the Appellate Body, as the case may be, under Articles 16 and 17(14) of the DSU. 4. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude a Party from implementing the suspension of obligations authorised by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body. The WTO Agreement shall not preclude a Party from suspending obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 127

Time Limits

1. Any time limits laid down in this Part, including the limits for the arbitration panels to notify their rulings, shall be counted in calendar days from the day following the act or fact to which they refer. 2. Any time limit referred to in this Part may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties.

– (i) involving restrictions on exports of domestic materials necessary to ensure essential quantities of such materials to a domestic processing industry during periods when the domestic price of such materials is held below the world price as part of a governmental stabilisation plan; such measures shall, however, not operate to increase the exports of or the protection afforded to such domestic industry, and shall not depart from the provisions of this Agreement relating to non-discrimination;
– (j) essential to the acquisition or distribution of products in general or local short supply, provided that any such measures shall be consistent with the principle that the EU or the EAC Partner State(s) are entitled to an equitable share of the international supply of such products, and that any such measures, which are inconsistent with the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be eliminated as soon as the conditions giving rise to them have ceased to exist.

ARTICLE 129

Taxation

Page 60 in PDF1. Nothing in this Agreement, or in any arrangement adopted under this Agreement, shall be construed to prevent a Party from distinguishing, in the application of the relevant provisions of its fiscal legislation, between taxpayers who are not in the same situation, in particular with regard to their place of residence or with regard to the place where their capital is invested. 2. Nothing in this Agreement, or in any arrangement adopted under this Agreement, shall be construed to prevent the adoption or enforcement of any measure aimed at preventing the avoidance or evasion of taxes pursuant to the tax provisions of agreements to avoid double taxation or other tax arrangements or domestic fiscal legislation. 3. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the Parties under any tax convention. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and any such convention, that convention shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

– (a) have established a customs union with the EU; and
– (b) whose products do not benefit from the tariff concessions under this Agreement. The EAC Partner State(s) agree to negotiate this in the future.

The Parties shall work together to strengthen their cooperation on trade-related aspects of sustainable forest management, improving forest conservation, minimising all forms of deforestation and forest degradation, improving traceability and chain of custody of forest products, promoting initiatives to enhance information sharing, fighting illegal logging and strengthening the role of forests in climate change mitigation, in the fight against biodiversity loss and in the circular economy and bioeconomy, bilaterally, regionally and in international fora as appropriate.

ARTICLE 9

Trade and Sustainable Management of Marine Biological Resources and Aquaculture

1. The Parties recognise the importance of conserving and sustainably managing marine biological resources and marine ecosystems as well as of promoting responsible and sustainable aquaculture, and the role of trade in pursuing these objectives. 2. The Parties acknowledge that illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing undermines sustainable conservation and management of fish stocks, has a negative impact on the livelihoods of fishing communities and those trading in fish and fishery products.
